Interesting that responsibility and work are not prominent. Those words stood out for me as I listened.

Would love to see this next to a tag cloud of Bush’s speeches at similar moments.

Comment on Javascript Debugging : console.debug() by zholmquist

I think it depends on the scope of what you are doing, and how many times you rely on console.debug(), I use it much the same way a developer would quickly echo, print, or alert to make sure everything is coming through the way it should – after I am satisfied, I delete it. As far as non-compatible browsers go, you will quickly realize you left a console.debug in at runtime because the script will fail quickly. I have a debug() function around somewhere, that checks whether it can do a console.debug or window.console.log( e ) – if neither, do nothing at all – that allows you to keep all your debug() statements in.

Also check out Firebug Lite – it works in IE : http://getfirebug.com/lite.html

Do you find this approach easier than inspection with Firebug? I worry that I would forget to remove the statements and cause runtime issues with the non-compatible browsers.
